How our listening work runs
Culture & Engagement Survey
Customized with your team for level, function, and region, live for two weeks, complete in eight to twelve. We measure ten themes, from belonging and voice to growth and psychological safety, and benchmark your results against organizations like yours.

Focus Groups
About ten participants per group, one hour, six to seven questions, two Paradigm facilitators. Groups are proposed from your survey results and finalized with you, and themes are clustered into discrete opportunity areas.
Listening Sessions
Facilitated conversations for the moments a survey is too blunt an instrument: a reorganization, a leadership change, a sensitive event. Repurposed into 1:1s where psychological safety is a concern, and summarized for leadership with identifying details removed.
Results That Keep Working
Findings flow into your strategy and advising work, and into Surface Listening if you run it, so the next survey measures change instead of starting over.
